Methods to identify the quality of tires: Observe the tread pattern, color, and gloss of the tire. In terms of tread pattern, generally speaking, due to the irregular processing of inferior retreaded tires, the tread grooves are relatively shallow. In terms of color, inferior retreaded tires appear bright and shiny, while regular tires are relatively darker. Retreaded tires have a duller color and gloss. Below is a related introduction about tire pressure: 1. Introduction to tire pressure: Strictly speaking, it refers to the air pressure inside the tire. Tire pressure is closely related to the performance of the car, such as comfort and load capacity, and also affects the lifespan of the tire. 2. Hazards of low tire pressure: Insufficient pressure increases the deformation of the tire body, making the sidewalls prone to cracks and causing flexing movements, leading to excessive heat, promoting rubber aging, fatigue of the cord layer, and breaking of the cords. It also increases the tire's contact area, accelerating shoulder wear. 3. Hazards of high tire pressure: Excessive pressure causes the tire cords to undergo excessive stretching deformation, reducing the elasticity of the tire body and increasing the load on the car during driving. In case of impact, it may lead to internal cracks and blowouts. At the same time, excessive pressure also accelerates tread wear and reduces puncture resistance.

What is the Difference Between Xenon Headlights and Halogen Headlights?

Xenon headlights and halogen headlights differ in their structure: Xenon headlights do not have filaments; instead, they generate light through an arc produced between two electrodes. Halogen headlights have filaments and produce light via tungsten filaments. The principle of xenon headlights involves filling an ultraviolet-resistant quartz glass tube with various chemical gases, then using a booster to instantly increase the vehicle's 12-volt power supply to 23,000 volts. Under this high voltage, xenon gas is ionized, creating a light source between the two electrodes. The principle of halogen headlights involves injecting halogen gases such as iodine or bromine into the bulb. At high temperatures, the sublimated tungsten filament reacts chemically with the halogen, and upon cooling, the tungsten re-solidifies on the filament, forming a balanced cycle that prevents the filament from breaking prematurely.

Does a child count as overloading?

Children count as overloading. Here is some information: Traffic regulations: According to China's traffic laws, the criterion for determining overloading is the number of passengers, and there is no exception for children. Even infants who cannot walk are counted as one passenger. Consequences of overloading: As per relevant laws, if the overload does not exceed 20% of the specified limit, a fine of 200 yuan and 3 demerit points will be imposed. If it exceeds 20%, an additional 3 demerit points will be added, totaling 6 points. Safety concerns: In the event of an emergency brake, children can easily be thrown out, causing unnecessary trouble and danger. Traffic police also emphasize that during family road trips, the number of passengers must strictly adhere to the vehicle's rated capacity.

Should the City use 5w30 or 5w40 engine oil?

The City can use either 5w30 or 5w40 engine oil. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, serves the following functions: lubricating and reducing friction in the engine, assisting in cooling, sealing against leaks, preventing rust and corrosion, and providing shock absorption. The City is a compact car. Taking the 2019 City CVT Dynamic Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4450 mm, width 1695 mm, height 1477 mm, with a wheelbase of 2600 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 40 liters. The 2019 City CVT Dynamic Edition is equipped with a 1.5L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 96 kW at 6600 rpm, and a maximum torque of 155 Nm at 4600 rpm.

Which Button is the Cruise Control?

Cruise control is activated by the lever located on the lower left side of the steering wheel. The lever features six buttons: RESUME, ON, CANCEL, OFF/ASL, ACCELERATE (+), and DECELERATE (-). Here’s an introduction to the cruise control system: Definition of Cruise Control System: The cruise control system (CRUISE-CONTROL-SYSTEM), abbreviated as CCS, is also known as a speed control device. Function of Cruise Control: Once the driver sets the desired speed and activates the system, the vehicle maintains that speed automatically without the need to press the accelerator pedal. Benefits of Cruise Control: During long drives on highways, it reduces driver fatigue by eliminating the need to manually control the accelerator pedal. It also minimizes unnecessary speed fluctuations, thereby improving fuel efficiency.

Where is the air conditioning filter of Venucia T90 located?

Open the engine hood, remove the fixed scupper clips and the scupper, and you can see the car's air conditioning filter. Below is the relevant introduction: The function of the air conditioning filter: The air conditioning filter is a filtering device in the air conditioning system used to filter dust, pollen, particulate matter, etc. Without an air conditioning filter, particulate matter or dust in the air entering the car can pollute the air inside the vehicle. This reduces the efficiency of the cooling system and may cause allergies if harmful particles are inhaled, potentially affecting driving safety. The filter needs regular replacement: The air conditioning filter should be replaced after a period of use to prevent clogging, which could lead to air conditioning blockage. A functioning air conditioning filter maintains clean air inside the car and protects the cooling system. Generally, the air conditioning filter should be replaced every 10,000 kilometers.
